    The 2014 South Australian local elections were held in November 2014 to elect the councils of 67 of the 68 local government areas (LGAs) in South Australia. Many councils also held mayoral elections.[1]

    As per usual, no election was held in Roxby Council as it is served by an administrator who performs all the functions of a council.[2]

    At the close of nominations on 16 September, a total of 1,334 candidates had nominated for mayoral or councillor positions. 45 elections were uncontested, resulting in 73 candidates being elected unopposed.[1] Three elections partially failed, resulting in follow-up supplementary elections to fill the five unfilled positions.[1]
